Regular kids know how to talk to people. They know how to laugh and they are funny and bright. Regular kids are usually better at explaining things to people and love it when they “get it”. Regular kids relate to people and empathize well. They watch tv and play video games and ride bikes. They play football and soccer and are good at things you cannot quantify with an SAT, ACT or MCAT. We need “REGULAR KIDS” to encourage us to try one more cancer treatment, to tell us to not lose hope, to keep science real and to use their talents to be creative in how they treat illnesses. Thank goodness for regular kids because they go on, many times, to lead extraordinary lives where they make a difference.
